    it gives good insight into the cultural death of middle-aged white americans

Hang on there, missy - the whole problem is that middle-aged white Americans have never before been required any awareness of culture other than their own. This is the principle reason they all hearken back to '67. Certainly: there were minorities around but they weren't required to care about them, let alone empathize with them.

You also need to keep in mind that for the past ten years, that's what Andrew Cuomo went home to. Then she traded up to the CEO of KB Home because of course she did.

I'm a reality TV snob. I don't watch the shows at the level I work, let alone those beneath. Chopped can't pay me half the rate I expect to be paid. Back when we had cable we'd wake up on Saturday morning and argue with the Food Network but we haven't had cable since 2006.
